KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 9 (Bernama) -- Ahmad Faedzal Md Ramli's tenure as chief executive officer (CEO) of the National Sports Institute (NSI) will end on Feb 24.
The 47-year-old said there is no possibility of his services being extended as he is subject to the Public Service Department (JPA) procedure
"I will complete my service (with NSI) on Feb 24 after six years. My tenure does not extend until the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. I am an officer with the Administrative and Diplomatic Service (PDT), so after this, the JPA will decide where I will be posted.
"No possibility (of extension) because I am subject to JPA procedure, which is usually for five years, and if there is an extension, it is based on certain cases,” he told Bernama when met here today.
Asked about his best moments as CEO of the NSI so far, Ahmad Faedzal said that offering services to national athletes during the COVID-19 pandemic gave him and his team the opportunity to think out of the box.
"At that time, we faced various challenges on the sports bubble, and then the quarantine issue. There was also the difficult situation at the Tokyo Olympics, which had very stringent standard operating procedures (SOPs).
"It was a once-in-a-lifetime situation to help athletes at the highest level,” he said.
On Feb 25, 2019, Ahmad Faedzal, the then deputy director of the Social Services Department, Ministry of Economic Affairs, replaced Dr Mohd Khairi Zawi as the new NSI CEO.
